Choosing the Right GNSS Module Types for Your Application

In today's rapidly evolving world, connectivity has become an essential aspect of industrial applications. The ability to monitor assets, vehicles, and fleets has paved the way for greater efficiency, productivity, and cost savings. One integral component in this connectivity landscape is the GNSS module, which enables precise global positioning. However, with the various GNSS module types available in the market, it can be challenging to select the right one for your specific application. In this article, we will explore the various GNSS module types offered by Unicore Communications and provide insights to help you make an informed decision.

Standalone GNSS Modules

Standalone GNSS modules are an excellent choice for applications that do not require additional communication capabilities. These modules come equipped with an integrated GNSS receiver and an antenna, allowing them to independently receive positioning data. Standalone GNSS module types are widely used in applications such as asset monitoring and personal navigation devices. With Unicore' superior standalone GPS modules, you can expect high accuracy, quick time-to-fix, and low power consumption.

Dead Reckoning GNSS Modules

Dead reckoning GNSS modules are specifically designed for applications where satellite signals are intermittently available or severely weakened. They combine GNSS technology with inertial sensors to estimate the position during signal loss periods accurately. Unicore's dead reckoning GNSS modules can provide consistent and accurate positioning data even in urban canyons, tunnels, or dense foliage. These modules find applications in fleet management, telematics, and navigation systems in urban environments.

High Precision GNSS Modules

In some industrial applications, high precision and reliability are of utmost importance. Unicore offers high precision GNSS modules capable of delivering centimeter-level positioning accuracy. These modules utilize advanced GNSS technology such as RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) to enhance accuracy and provide precise positioning data for critical operations. High precision GNSS modules are commonly used in surveying, precision agriculture, construction, and autonomous vehicles.

In conclusion, selecting the right GNSS module type is crucial for the success of your industrial connectivity application. Unicore offers a comprehensive range of GNSS module types tailored to different application needs.
